#BOTW - BEEF OF THE WEEK

Instagram @thefarmstyle

Today’s #BOTW is the perfect excuse to fire up the grill, and use up some leftover brisket! This BBQ brisket pizza from Kayla Zenner has all the flavors: smoky brisket, tangy sourdough, spicy pepper jack, and savory chive blossoms!

Nothing says “spring” like a bunch of flowers everywhere!

What would you rate this #BOTW?
